Yep, very smooth at 164v but not enough room to wind it up.
got the 2 radiators on beside the pack like a Honda Sp1 but
motor leaks water probly not enough silicon on the cooling jacket.

Impressive. I'm constantly amazed at how big a pack you guys shoehorn into a motorcycle. That's more than my mini will have. Are the busbars made from copper braid or multiple strands of small gauge wire?

The entire power train is aluminium.
Pos terminal is 4mm, Neg terminal is 1.5mm folded over the aluminium braid and crimped.
the braid ends are 16mm dia x 1mm alloy tube crushed to crimp and 3 m4 drill holes across and sleeved with heat shrink.
the blade connection is 1.5mm aluminium with carbon grease.
The heat shrink will tell me if I have a heat problem. Theres max 240A going through each braid at full throttle.
Im looking at 12 seconds to replace the pack in race

New dual radiators go in beside the battery pack and cut the front lip off the R6 fairing to get more air to the rads.



on commuter mode motor runs at 42C.
just did 42km around the streets here averaging 40kmh.
opened up the hole in the tank cover to get the pack out.
the release handle sticks out a bit.



new swingarm makes for very narrow bike.
